[Equalizer]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin.

But this is predicated upon the man's becoming in very fact an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here.

Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all.

We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...

We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...

and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people." - Theodore Roosevelt

>We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...

I disagree with that in that it used to be a sign of education to be knowledgeable in more than one language; on the other hand, for official purposes it is much desirable to have a single common [official] language: in this case it would be English.

A couple of points. Firstly, resisting assimilation makes perfect sense to me.

Christ must be the final Lord and not society and not Caesar.

Secondly, some pertinent entertainment.
